…whether we read the books or not

…whether we read the books or not

“All the books we own, both read and unread, are the fullest expression of self we have at our disposal. … But with each passing year, and with each whimsical purchase, our libraries become more and more able to articulate who we are, whether we read the books or not.”
—Nick Hornby, The Polysyllabic Spree
